BMW E21 323i (1981)

[B.J.W]

Hi all,

quick question regarding my E21 323i. The washer pump has failed and I ordered the standard replacement part from a classic BMW business in Germany. When the part arrived it turned out to be the wrong one. My car has the factory fitted headlamp and washer wipers. I didn't realise this, but it is in fact a double pump that is required to power both windscreen and headlamp washers and wipers. I can't find this part anywhere - does anyone know of any specialists that might be able to provided one, or at least point me in the direction of where I might source one? My only option at this stage is to try main dealer, but I'd rather avoid the big invoice if possible....

Thanks in advance.

Ben

It fits a few versions, might help if you try a scrappie.

Does the bottom unscrew ? Bit of emery on the armeture and some brushes might fix it.
